Precious Ribbon Necklace.
Here I go again, reneging on my hate of yellow gold. This time it’s the Precious Ribbon Necklace, a simple bow made of a beautiful flat linked chain.

Win It: OKCityCard.
This week we’re trying a little something different on the Win It front – a locals only giveaway for Oklahoma City. When Allied Arts contacted me about their OKCityCard I couldn’t turn down the opportunity to spread the word about this incredible little piece of plastic.
This year they’ve team up with 181 discount partners to save you tons around OKC. We’re talking about 16 Attractions + Events, 26 Performing Arts, 58 Shops + Services, 48 Restaurants, 11 Museums, 7 Galleries, 5 Sports, 7 Classes and 3 Hotels. Total madness and all for $50 that go towards supporting the arts. That is unless you’re a Design Crush reader in the OKC area because then, well, you have a chance at winning one of two OKCityCards for free. I love free.
To Enter, Tell Me:
1. Your favorite things to do in OKC on your days off
2. Your email address
3. Do it all before Monday, April 19th at 9am CST

Banter Banner.
Banter Banners are the more creative sister of the classic ‘Happy Birthday’ banner and perfectly acceptable to leave hanging year round. Love. {via greedy girl}

Rice.
Now that warmer weather is kicking in, outdoor entertaining is right around the corner. And while I adore my Fiestaware for indoors I don’t take outside. That’s reserved for one of my favorite things: melamine. And one company that consistently gets it right is Rice, tons of bright colors that are easy to mix and match and scream let’s do this!

Vintage Comic Posters.
I’ve never really been a comic girl, but for these vintage posters by Michael Myers no, not that Michael Myers I think I could make an exception. Myers features popular comic book characters as vintage feeling posters, right down to the aged paper and fold marks. {via paper crave}

Fishcondo.
Easily the coolest fish bowl I’ve ever seen, Fishcondo is a geometric fish bowl that resembles a condo for your aquatic companion. Stack a few together for a condo-like appearance. A glass bowl is surrounded by a white shell and can be easily removed for cleaning. Fishy not included. Definitely makes me want a fish for my desk at work! {via Rare Bird Finds}
